[Pharo-dev] Pharo Launcher Error

2017-10-02 Thread Brad Selfridge
I'm trying to run the Pharo6.1 Launcher. I'm getting the following error when
running from a command line: 
*
"This interpreter (vers. 68021) cannot read image file (vers. 6521)."*

I'm running the 64bit vm built on July 20th and I downloaded the latest
launcher at: 

*http://files.pharo.org/platform/launcher/PharoLauncher-user-stable-2017.09.29.zip*

Thanks for any help,

Re: [Pharo-dev] Any idea for a cool name for the remote tool suite?

2017-02-24 Thread Brad Selfridge
I understand that if a developer is building a standalone application, (like
Windows, Apache, Slack, Git, .. PHARO !!! ), then a fuzzy-wuzzy name may
make sense. But, there are so many packages that are built for Pharo/Squeak
use only, that have cryptic names and no descriptions. This drives me crazy.
I see all these package names spewn about and I have no idea what they are.
I look on the Pharo website - no explanation. I look on Git - often times
little to no explanation. I look on SmalltalkHub - little to no
explanation...etc. I look on Catalog Browser - absolutely NO explanation.
The only way to find out is start texting message boards or load the code
and study the crap out of it just trying to figure out that - "oops, I
didn't really want that loaded at all". 

With that said, the creator has the right to name their creation anything
they want. Just understand, that we ARE wanting to grow our exposure and the
we need to make this as easy and pain free as possible.

2017-01-30 Thread Brad Selfridge
I'm not a big fan of cryptic names. I already think there are way too 
many in Pharo. You look at the names and have no idea what they do. Why 
not call it what it is: "Pharo Remote IDE" or "RemoteIDE".  It's simple 
and it tells the user EXACTLY what it is without digging into some 
obscure document, (or no document at all).

Re: [Pharo-dev] #printShowingMaxDecimalPlaces: What do you think?

2016-11-14 Thread Brad
I vote for the NumberFormatter. It adds another layer, which can be a pain, but 
gives you much more flexibility. Plus it decouples the formatting from all of 
the number classes. VA Smalltalk has something like this.

Does this mean "worlds within worlds" or "worlds adjacent to other worlds".
If adjacent, will they be able to communicate with each other?

Re: [Pharo-dev] Pharo bootstrap

2016-01-20 Thread Brad Selfridge
Has anyone looked at the VASmalltalk Envy Packager. It let's one decide
whether you want to package a headless or UI image. It then allows one to
define packaging instructions, that are saved with the new application),
that get fed into the packager. The instructions define prerequisite apps,
un-referenced methods, etc. When one defines a new application (package),
one can define prerequisite applications that have to be installed before
the current application is installed. This prerequisite chain is used in
loading the application from Envy and in packaging. Seems to work fairly
well. Doesn't take too long to package an app and give the developer pretty
fine control over the packaging and loading process.
